Thread: What are you naming your hobbit?

Just curious. I saw a lot of hobbit names in beta that I thought were very clever and/or funny. Mine was called Jeffaman but I just came up wit that one by putting one of the suggested suffixes on my real name(betcha can't guess what that is )

See ya at the Party Tree!!!

I'll tell you Saturday.

I think the Nerfherder bloodline died with CB. So I am at a loss for a good Hobbit name right now. Everything that sounds good and hobbity seems to close to a name from the books.

Wavlo.

Ah well....you can still be "half-witted" and "scruffy looking", though.

I'm going for Billbow or maybe Baagggins, or quite possibly Frododo.

OK, not really!

My friend to Scruffie in CB, so I count that as his choice to go with.

His name will be ______ . Hehe, not till Friday morning. I hope I can get the names I want.

lol, i wouldn't tell anyone names you want being that someone else would steal it before you. I'll give you my hobbits name on friday. =)

I was thinking about Bilborndalf myself

OK I guess I should waited until tomorrow so names don't get burgled. I didn't really think about that. I'll be making at least 2 or 3 hobbits this weekend so I'll have to give it some thought tonight.

lol theres no way your gettin names.....

Hehe. I realize that now. I'll wait until Monday and retitle: "Hey! What did you name your hobbit?"

Personaly I have a long history of using whatever goofy name comes to mind during character creation but I now realize I should've waited since some folks probably have names they want to reserve.

Only your feet can be scruffy lookin...

Can you have a surname from the books?

I really want to be a Brandybuck...

Just to save you some headache, the suffix -ard is not allowed. A lot of the common hobbit names are also reserved. The game gives tips on naming conventions and that seems to lead people to pick the same 20 names in each race. You'll have better luck at level 15 when you can pick a surname....some more common names are available. Humm maybe a Hobbit burgler named Locke Smith or Lox Mith or .......

IIRC Brandybuck and Took are banned, but I was able to be known as ______ Underhill

For sure Baggins and Sackville, Proudfoot, ect are banned. I did see Gap Inc, a TOU violation but he was a hobbit, so just a small violation

Curses...that is lame.

Ah well, it makes sense, as there can only be so many of each family.

FWIW, there is a lot of genology for Hobbits, so finding a lore based name shouldn't be too difficult for Founders. Just another perk I suppose.

I tended to go Fallohide, just like the skin tones best. For men I just used the appendix and combined two names. For female hobbits I opened up a gardening book and started picking flower names. I've two great ones, sure to be the first two I roll. Gemstones are great, and Fairy tale names too....like Goldilocks.

Do people really take other people's names they wanted to use on purpose? Now why would someone go and do that? Just to be mean? No secret what I'd like to call myself in-game.. Dolbin! I'd like to have the last name Twinleaf but a fella said that might be an NPC's name. Anyway, I hope nobody takes my name!

Apparently my name translates to:

Merum Moresby , Master of the Hall

im a player who's the fan of the Rocket,there exsists a tall man,so how about called it McYaF

I wanted to use the symbol Prince had used for his name but he may have it patented and I don't want a purple boot up my hind quarters.

I have to wait until work's over to start naming hobbits. As if Fridays don't go slow enough.

j/k :P

My hobbit burglar is Klepto Took

Well as might be obvious by my Forum name, I was intending to be Hobson. A nice proper hobbit name. I actually use the same name for a bard I have/had in EQ2. Unfortunately, even thought I logged into the Windfola server at 12:45EDT the name had already been taken.
What are the odds? I kinda expeted something of that nature since I had the name during CB1 but I couldn't get it during CB2, so I modified it in the classic way and am now named Hobbson.

My Hobbit Burglar is named Brimley on 6 of the servers ( see sig )

I was surprised to get Polo.

Which is funny, because tonight on Landroval Polo (the quest giver is broken). So, when people ask if Polo is broken, I say, "I think not!"

(Or ask them to stop trying to do the quest because bears keep spawning and killing me.)

Well now that I grabbed my names, Randy and Dook!

Somebody on the server the other day was suggesting Teabaggins, I got a chuckle out of that =]

Well I got the couple names that I wanted and came up with a few more. My hobbitses are Jeffaman-guardian and Jeffro the Burgler.

Female hobbit burglar named Aquamarine

hobbit minstral star

hobbit burglar stardust

Im on Brandywine with Halfas Gamge lvl 15 minstrel. Actually pretty unoriginal since its taken straight from Halfast Gamgee. I also have a burgler named Haldoc.

I was somewhat surprised to see someone named "pippen" chatting on the ooc last night. I thought that would have been a reserverd name for sure...

-ceehog

Mogo. What, I can't just put that? Well fine. Heesh, stupid 10 character post limit...

Hobo Raggins

It just came to me.
